Have you felt annoyed when a cell phone (手機(jī))rings during the class? Something must be done to stop this. Now in New York City, USA, a rule is carried out(執(zhí)行) in schools. Students can’t even bring cell phones to school. Is it a good thing or not?
Anxious(焦慮的) parents say that cell phones are an important tool in holding New York City’s families together.
“I worry about it,” said Elizabeth Lorris Ritter, a mother of a middle school kid. “It’s necessary in our everyday life. We have a washing machine, we have running water, and we have cell phones.”
A number of Americans think cell phones connect them to children on buses, getting out from subways, walking through unknown places.
“I have her call me when she gets out school,” said Lindsay Walt, a schoolgirl’s mother. “No one in New York is going to let their children go to school without a cell phone.
What about the cell phone owners, the students? Most of the students said that cell phones were necessary and the cell phone was like an extra(額外的)hand or foot for them.
“I feel so empty,” said May Chom, 14. “There is also no way to listen to music on the way to school without my phone. It will be a really, really boring trip.”

科目:初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

Height is just one of the thousands of features (特征) that your genes (基因) decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then maybe you will be tall, too, but if you have questions about how tall you’re going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out.
But genes don’t decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential (潛力). Getting enough sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the right height.
No doubt you’re wondering how fast you should grow. There’s no perfect or right answer. Kids grow about 2 inches (5 centimetres) a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up).
Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. Two centimetres here and 2 inches there are not nearly as important as the height you’re at now, how you’ve been growing up to this point, and what other changes your body may be going through.
Don’t be scared if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a very quick growth during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or later – between 7 and 13 for girls, 9 and 15 for boys.
You’ll usually begin to notice that you’re growing faster about a year after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty.
小題1:The Chinese for the underlined word in the third paragraph “puberty” is           .
A.童年時(shí)期B.?huà)胗變簳r(shí)期C.習(xí)慣養(yǎng)成期D.青春期
小題2:If you want to know how fast and how tall you should grow,          .
A.you should have enough exercise
B.you can ask doctors for help
C.you should protect the environment
D.you can record your growth during puberty
小題3:This passage is mainly about            .
A.how the genes work in your body
B.when is the time you grow fast
C.why you look like your parents
D.how you grow to a certain height
小題4:After reading this passage, we can explain ___________.   
A.how good it is to be a doctor
B.how much sleep we need
C.why genes can’t decide everything
D.what an unhealthy diet is
小題5:Which is NOT mentioned (提及) in the passage?
A.Your height most probably depends on (取決于) how tall your parents are.
B.Girls’ age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boys’.
C.The time showing the first changes of puberty is never noticed.
D.You may be scared sometimes when you grow too fast.

Rivers are one of our most important natural resources(資源). Many of the world’s great cities are located on rivers, and almost every country has at least one river running through it that plays an important part in the lives of its people.
Since the beginning of history, people have used rivers for transportation. The longest one in the United States is the Mississippi. The lifeline of Egypt is the Nile. To the people of India, the Ganges is great, but it is also important for transportation; ships can travel along it for a thousand miles. Other great rivers are the Congo in Africa and the Mekong in southeastern Asia. The greatest of all for navigation(航海), however, is the Amazon in Brazil(巴西). It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles up it.
Besides transportation, rivers give food to eat, water to drink, water for crops, and chances for fun. In order to increase the supply(供給) of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam (大壩)across a river and let a lake form behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate(灌溉) their fields but also to make electricity for their homes and industries.
However, large cities and industries that are located on rivers often cause problems. As the cities grow in size and industries increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted with chemicals and other materials. People are learning the importance, however, of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits of these natural resources.
小題1:The greatest river for navigation is ________________.
A.the MississippiB.the Nile
C.the MekongD.the Amazon
小題2:Which is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Many cities are located on rivers.

A.keeping the rivers clean
B.making electricity
C.washing clothes
D.irrigation and the production of electricity
小題4:Most water in rivers is polluted with ___________.
A.people’s drinking water too much
B.people’s swimming in the river too much
C.chemicals and other materials
D.people’s building a dam across a river

Taking away a city’s rubbish is a big job. Every day trucks come into a city to collect it. Most rubbish is made up of things we can’t eat or use. If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.
In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of the city to a dump(垃圾站). Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. The sewagesystem takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs(澡盆) and other places.
To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then you’d never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.
In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal. Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus(腐殖土), which looks like black earth. It is rich with kinds of things that feed plants and help make them grow.
小題1:You can most probably read the passage in _______.
A.a(chǎn) history bookB.a(chǎn) TV guide
C.a(chǎn) science bookD.a(chǎn) telephone book
